In this episode of Getting Open, Andrea Miller sits down with Nidhi Pandya, Ayurvedic practitioner and wellness educator, to explore a gentler, more personalized approach to health. Nidhi explains why modern nutrition and wellness advice often leads to confusion and burnout, and how Ayurveda focuses on balance, digestion, and self-awareness rather than restriction. This conversation dives into intuitive eating, stress, daily rhythms, and how understanding your unique body can help you build sustainable well-being without extremes.
